Craig Groeschel

He would work all weird hours of the night.

And

He produced great work, but he did it at really, really odd hours.

And so I suggested to the boss, why don't you just try for a month?

Give him the freedom of workflow.

It doesn't matter when he does it, just does he get it done?

And what happened is the creative guy totally and completely crushed it.

And so the outcome became better, and it also helped the leader learn how to lead different people differently.

Super, super important.

So what do we have?

Well, we may have a right person in the wrong seat.

We may have the right person with the wrong pairing.

We may have the right person with the wrong boss.

And sometimes, a fourth issue is we may have the right person in the wrong season.

The right person could be in the wrong season, and the role actually fits the person, but for some reason, the timing doesn't.

And it could be personal or it could be organizational.

It could be personal, like you're in a season of life where you've got a great person and their spouse has cancer, and it's just not the right time to...

for this person to drive hard.

Or you got a strong leader with four kids under four years of age, and that leader might be a little bit torn.

Do I want to be more focused at home or do I want to bring it all at work?
